Great Harvest 🥔 thanks for sharing
Years ago I use to grow some winter squash that were over 35 pounds.As the squash produces runners if the vines become damaged covering the damaged area with moist soil will correct the damage.Thank you for another important video.
Great tip!
New subscriber; great harvest!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your garden with us. New friend here. Showing you support. Your swiss chard looks good. You did a great job. Have a blessed day
Thanks and welcome! I appreciate your support. You have a blessed day too.
I have been growing swiss chard for a number of years.I only add a little olive oil to cook it covered less than five minutes.I never add any water when I cook any kind of green.Swiss chard is also healthy and delicious when eaten raw. Thank you for another nice video.
Glad you have had success growing swiss chard. I will have to try cooking it your way, It sounds delicious!
Awesome!!..how tall are your planters??
Glad you liked the video. The planters are about 36 inches tall. It saves bending so much! Have great day🙂

I have never grown rhubarb before, years ago I did have rhubarb pie thank you for explaining how to grow this plant.
You are welcome! Have a great day :-)
Noticed the feeding roots and whiths potatoes were casting out their potatoes. You could plant twice the amount in beds without harming the growth size or spread. Glad i watch. Thanks
Glad you liked the video. Have a nice day.
I’ve just prescribed to your channel could you let me know which size pot you are using for the tiny Tim ? Thank you 😊
Welcome! Thank you for stopping by and subscribing to my channel. To answer your question, I planted the Tiny Tim tomato seeds in a 5 gallon smart pot. It is a determinant tomato so it does not have long vines. However, I do give the stalks some support with bamboo stakes. Happy gardening!
Their so beautiful ,i love the way they sound when harvesting idk how but years ago i ended up with one collard gteen in my garden..that thing got so big!! I not knkwing much about collards back then i wondered why it grew like that.ibe taken collards a little more serious this year and i hope mine get as big as yours!❤

Great video 👌🏾⚘️ May i ask, how many potatoes did you plant? Thank you! ⚘️
Glad you liked the video. I did a video showing how many seed potatoes I planted. You may want to watch that one too. Best wishes.
@@henrib723 Will do! Thank you! ⚘️
Hello! I was scrolling and noticed your lettuce set up. That’s brilliant 👏🏿 I’ve never thought of doing that
Glad you like the set up. It is easy to do. Consider growing your own groceries. Wish you the best!
@@henrib723 I do! 😊 I have a market garden that helps feed my small community and a backyard garden for my family.
What size are those pellets and where can I get them from? Been looking for those big pellets.
Glad you liked the video! The pellets I have are 3/4" thick. They come in regular and and XXL size. They can be purchased in various size packages at different big box stores.Type in "Jiffy pellets" in a Google search and they will show up. Have a great day!
Your plants are very beautiful! Where did you get your 5" orange pots and tray? I said the exact same thing about growing my own lettuce. I've only started tomatoes, peppers and lettuce for now.
Glad you like them. I got the pots and trays from Bootstrap Farmer.
Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!
Nice video.
Love your indoor garden.😊
Thank you. Have a great day!

You make it look so clean. I make the biggest messes. Kudos to you. How is the quail doing singing in the background. You have a co host 😂
Glad you like the video. Yes, my rooster quails like to be heard on camera. They are real characters!
I really appreciate this video. I purchased the All American 1930 in November I haven’t used it yet just reading and educating myself first. I’m so excited never canned anything before but growing up I watched my mother can and garden. 😊
I am glad you found the video useful. Canning for the first time is very exiting. Decide what you want to can first and go for it. You've got this!
How exciting! Congratulations!
Thank you!!
Pretty parrot
Thank you. He turned 15 years old last month :-)
The same thing happens when you have chickens wand too many roosters, I had to get rid of several roosters for aggression
Thank you for your comment. Glad to know it is not just my quail.

I appreciate the information an I love animals.I believe they are very uncomfortable in the limited space.
Hello: Thank you for watching and for your comment. I will give more detail on the cage space in my next update. Have a great day.
Hello to anyone in the Big Mitten! I live in Zone 5b in Illinois. Not sure of the new zone.
Hello! To check your hardiness zone do a Google search. Type in USDA Hardiness Zone Map and hit return. It should take you to a page that is the 2023 USDA Hardiness Zone Map. In that search bar type in your zip code and hit return. You should get s drop down that displays your current hardiness zone and temperatures. Not everyone's zone changed but many did. It s good to check to see if yours changed. Best wishes!
My zone is still 8b for now.
Thanks for the information. Will head over to your website and check out your products. I’m in zone 8, SC.
Awesome! Thank you!
It's amazing how big they are I wonder how much they weight.
I don't really know. I will try to weigh them in a few weeks.
The squirrel game is funny i have that issue on my garden too
Hi. I’m in zone 8 SC. Just planted my last bit of garlic. Thanks for the tip on covering the raised beds
Glad to help!
I recently ordered 30 Michigan Tree Collard Seeds from Project Tree Collard on Etsy. The seeds I bought are from Tree Collard plants grown in Michigan that have been outside for the last 5 years in USDA zones 5-6, and have survived temperatures to 0 F. I live in zone 5 at 8,000ft elevation and I am excited to see how these seeds grow in my area.
Great! I hope you get a high germination rate of the seeds and a bountiful harvest for many years to come.
Thank you sister! HalleluYah!
Amazing how much they’ve grown in 2 weeks!
Yes!
When is it the right time to harvest?
Good question! You want to harvest your potatoes after the stalks the stalks have died back and turned mostly brown.
Beautiful keep up the good work I’m trying to do the same thing
Thank you for subscribing. Glad you liked the video. I wish you much success with your harvest!
I’m trying out this fall gardening so I’m trying to extend through November or mid December
Great to hear from another Michigander! I hope the weather cooperates so you can get the harvest you want. Let me know how it goes!
Hi neighbor. I’m in Michigan too. I’m excited for the fall season

I hope everything continues to go well.The information was very informative.
Thank you! I will do another update soon. Hope you have a great day!
